Hi

I recently moved to Pocomail and have decided that its a waste of space - potentially a good app but buggy and blessed with just about the worst standard of support I have ever experienced.

Browsing these fora has answered most of my questions, but I have one big one left; i have a yahoo account that I need to access. I've read that TB can't deal with webmail, but can it do so if I configure an account to use my own smtp server to send messages from my yahoo address? (this was the solution in Pocomail).

Thanx

TB only downloads mail from IMAP or POP3, so you need something that translates from webinterface to pop3. I don't use webmail myself, so I'm not up to date with applications in that area. __________________________________ I'm just a user of The Bat! I don't work for Ritlabs.
